The complainant made a number of requests under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 for various sets of minutes from the school. The school ultimately provided the complainant with some of the information he requested but made some redactions to the information provided. The complainant was dissatisfied with the redactions made to two sets of the minutes he had requested. The redactions were made under sections 40(2) and 22 of the Act. The Commissioner has concluded that section 22 was incorrectly applied to both sets of minutes. However he finds that the school was correct to make the redactions under section 40(2) to one of the sets of minutes but was incorrect in applying this exemption to make the redactions to the other set of minutes.
Section of Act/EIR and Finding: FOI 10 – Complaint Upheld, FOI 17 – Complaint Upheld, FOI 22 – Complaint Upheld, FOI 40 – Complaint Partly Upheld
